Smoked Beer Can Chicken with Hickory Flavor delivers deep, bold smoke and incredibly juicy meat with minimal effort. The hickory wood adds a rich backyard aroma while the beer can method keeps the chicken tender from the inside out. It’s slow-smoked comfort food that turns a simple chicken into a true weekend centerpiece.

Bright, citrusy, and impossibly juicy, this Lemon Pepper Marinated Beer Can Chicken is everything I love about simple backyard cooking. The lemon-forward marinade soaks deep into the meat, the cracked pepper adds just the right bite, and the beer works quietly from the inside to keep every slice tender. It’s the kind of chicken that fills the yard with an incredible smell, requires very little fuss, and delivers big, honest flavor the moment you carve into it.
